“What about these earrings?” I held them up to Eva’s ears as she gazed at her reflection in the mirror.
Eva wrinkled her nose. “I’m not sure. I think my dress is sparkly enough. I don’t want to look like a disco ball.” She laughed and smoothed her hands over her glittering white dress.
I dug around in the jewelry box for another pair of earrings.
“Oof.” I put my hand on my large belly.
“What’s wrong?” she asked.
“Nothing. Baby is a bit active today.”
Eva grinned and put her hands around my over-large stomach. I was due any day now, but I hoped I could at least make it through Eva’s wedding and reception.
“You’ll be out soon to meet all of us, little one.” Eva patted my stomach and turned back to the mirror.
“Here, try these.” I handed her another pair of earrings. They were pearls instead of diamonds. “These are less sparkly.”
“They’re perfect!”
